Third party games sell consoles. This isn't up for debate.
This is mind boggling.
You're saying Microsoft and Sony have bundled CoD with their systems over the years (from the 360 gen up to now) and heavily advertised them....because it doesn't sell the system? How is this even being discussed?
We're not talking about Era here. We're talking about your average person who is only playing 1-3 games on these systems a year. Those type of people are the majority, and they wouldn't even be able to tell you what 'JRPG' stands for. CoD is a massive multiplayer game. If that game is associated with a particular platform, a group of friends would be more likely to play it there. This is especially the case this gen where stock has been a problem. Sony has seemingly got their stock back on the right track, and they have/had a CoD bundle to help grab the people who had been waiting.
My point was fairly clear. Your response doesn't pertain to what I was discussing.
Pertain to what? Sony has JRPG's and CoD (for at least another 10 years).
